Makes sense,.. stupid question on my part! Didn't get the broken plug out before it got dark so I haven't gotten a chance to restart it (w/o the MAF sensor connected.) And now that you mention it, yes the coolant has been low lately. Although, I did just have a leak from a loose hose clamp so I might just need to have added a bit more antifreeze. The plugs definitely smell like gas, not coolant. But I have been thinking about having to replace the UIM. I highly doubt it was replaced, as I'm the second owner, and it had 44k on it when I bought it two years ago.


(Note to self- I need a raise!)
